People are promoted to lead others based on their seniority in technical areas. Others become managers after getting a management degree from a b-school that never taught them the fundamentals of dealing with people. They end up putting off people through their behavior and set a wrong example for their subordinates to follow. More considerate and kind. How can you use this list?

Venturing down the path of implementing a 360-degree feedback process for performance assessments or development purposes? Better detect the hidden land mines before charging ahead. The process you hope will bring added value to the business may erupt as a destroyer of employee engagement. But, as is the case with any new, unfamiliar process, the devil is in the pre-planning details.

I love observing human behavior. In particular, I love observing human leadership behavior. There are so many different approaches used to get the job done. Some are focused on the work exclusively, some are oriented toward relationships, and others are focused on their own power. When organizational changes are added to the mix, a power struggle of sorts often follows. No Excuses. photo credit.

More or less? Employee engagement is myopically focused on more and has a major lacuna to the power of less. We are told that we need more productivity, more relationships, more training, and more discretionary effort. Perhaps we need don’t need more effort we need effort-less. Powerful engagement is seeded by less not more. Don’t pile on programs, initiatives, and tasks. Ask yourself: What needs to end? What do we need to stop doing? Engagement begins when we say, “no more.” ” **. Employee Engagement

I don't think I've ever worked anywhere that people didn't talk about politics. Of course, my jobs have always involved the news business, so that's pretty natural.

It is a well-known fact that established teams experience “transition pains” under the leadership of newly appointed managers.

This past spring, we conducted a survey along with Human Resource Executive to learn how organizations are doing in the quest for greater workforce visibility. Has the needle moved? We discovered that in some ways it has. But we found that in many ways, a holistic picture of the workforce is still missing, and the consequences of this blind spot have amplified.

I’ve spent a couple of non-Olympic days in London this week and have been pleased to see travel disruption significantly down on what had been feared – in fact away from the Olympic venues and major train stations there seem to be less people around than there are normally. Of course the issue isn’t really about management of sickness absence as it is about more progressive employee support.

Pride is the ultimate double-edged sword. It helps us stay strong in the face of adversity, and it sends us right to the bottom of the pit when we cling too tightly. What an odd combination. One moment we rejoice at the end of a long project that launches successfully. Another moment has us so stubborn that we can not even see even the most obvious choices in front of us. Sometimes. Falling hurts.

An Olympic Action – An Organizational Consideration. The Olympics  banned a number of female badminton players. Ban disengaged employees? I am not suggesting that we ban all disengaged employees from workplaces as there are many causes for disengagement but it makes me think that we should take decisive action and “ban” employees who deliberately don’t give their best to their work because of self-interest as they fail to consider the impact their poor performance has on their customers, peers, and organization.
